“My child actually enjoys going to the dentist! As a parent who wants the best for my child, I choose my healthcare providers very carefully, thinking back to my own experiences with doctors and dentist offices. The dentist's office of my childhood was very dull and evoked painful memories of drills and needles. I definitely didn't want my daughter to have the same fear of the dentist that I had growing up, so the choice was an important one. I decided to try Sanford Pediatric Dentistry because a friend of mine raved about the practice. I made my appointment with guarded expectations based on my own biases and childhood experience toward the dentist's office. Imagine my delight and surprise when I entered a building that was very kid-friendly and professionally organized! The staff was attentive, professional, and immediately connected with me and with my child. The bright colors and the matching uniforms of the staff put me at ease, and this was just in the lobby! When we went back to the treatment area, I was amazed! The bright colors, beautiful wall decorations, and cleanliness were very welcoming. My child was treated by Ms. Brittany who was friendly, patient, and gentle. Ms. Brittany explained everything she was doing and continuously reassured my child by asking her if she was ok. After a quick trip to the x-ray room, we were back in the chair. Dr. Antonio approached our chair with a silly chicken hat and mismatched shoes... ”Is this the dentist?” my child asked. My child was all smiles and laughed at Dr. Antonio's silly jokes. Dr. Antonio was very clear in his explanation of the condition of my child's dental health and ways that I could improve it. Our visit to Sanford Pediatric Dentistry has truly changed my opinion about trips to the dentist's office. My daughter always wants to see Dr. Antonio and Ms. Brittany when it is time to visit the dentist to have her teeth cleaned. She also loves using her token for the reward machines when leaving. Thank you all for such a wonderful experience at the dentist's office”
